Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, whey protein powder, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until well blended and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just incorporated.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the center.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy as a protein-packed snack or dessert!
